My topics concern human rights, world peace, community outreach & a love of the arts including music, poetry, visual arts including movies & theatre. Working on maintaining inner peace in a very chaotic world. Space exploration, the sun the moon, stars our universe & beyond. The seasons of our planet & our lives. The need for disarmament & how all of this impacts the lives of individuals, communities & our world at large.

Some Thoughts On A Favorite Poet, We Too Drink Constant Comment Tea--

I just saw a Leonard Cohen documentary & was totally blown away by the depth of this humble human being. The genius in his poetry put to song, an eternal sadness in the irony of it all, painful to feel, yet richly beautiful. That is our life, our collective consciousness-- our human condition.

After viewing this film my first emotion was pure love & acceptance, not only to those that are my sunshine to get along with, in-- living this life, but especially to the individuals who I have perceived, as to having had given me grief, to them I remain truly grateful for the opportunities of growth. With this growth my renewed desire to visit the Peace Abey becomes a more focused thought. I am totally re newed, re inspired, & re acquainted with a mind that allows me to absorb what it is I have always know. Leonard Cohen has given us yet another spiritual avenue, sharing with us the valuable thread we all weave.

For God is with us, in our joys, in our sorrows & all the spaces in between.

About Me

Some times we hear the tree in the forest when it falls, sometimes not..
Life is a discovery process, and with it our mutual search for peace in our hearts, and in our world at large. Love and, acceptance is the key.
I am now a mother & a grandmother, but during my childhood's generation many of us were given limited choices if we wanted any type of job outside the home. The word career was never mentioned. We were often told to become teachers, secretaries, waitresses, & nurses. I chose the later. It suited who I was, & as I delved into it year upon year I acquired knowledge and skills I never would have achieved in any other way because the nursing profession provides unique human experiences which not only helps our patients but enriches the lives of our fellow/fella nightingales too. All of it further developed my desire for- peaceful solutions in all matters.
The purpose of this blog is a hint of what all human beings desire whether verbalized or not...
"May Peace Prevail On Earth", is a possibility for one Person, one Nation at a time.~xo~
